    What's special

    Nestled at the end of a picturesque cul-de-sac in the heart of historic Essex, this beautifully maintained residence offers over 3,000 square feet of refined living space just moments from the scenic Connecticut River. Step inside to a dramatic two-story foyer that sets the tone for the open and airy floor plan. The kitchen features custom cabinetry, granite counters, and gleaming stainless steel appliances-all perfectly complemented by clear maple hardwood floors. The adjoining family room is bathed in natural light, thanks to the Andersen windows and a soaring cathedral ceiling, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. French doors open to a lovely, private deck ideal for entertaining or relaxation, with steps leading to a secluded backyard. This main level also includes a front-to-back living and dining room, along with a private office suite enclosed by elegant French doors. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is a true retreat, with a private hallway leading to the "getaway" bathroom, complete with a Jacuzzi soaking tub and cathedral ceiling. Three additional bedrooms and a full bath complete the upper level. The walk-out lower level is filled with natural light and offers flexible space for a gym, studio or recreation room. It also houses the home's mechanicals, including a 200-amp underground electrical service. Energy efficiency is enhanced with R-49 insulation in the attic.
